"Make Your Travel More rewarding"

I just received the following email:

"Hans, we appreciate that you chose United for your recent trip to Seattle. If you book your next flight at united.com, you’ll have access to" all kinds of neat stuff (he says).

Do they really not know that as a 1K and MM flyer, I book all of my flights through the web site? Just seems like another example of poor marketing especially to your "regulars."

Their CRM system has been awful lately. I've received emails saying "Purchase Economy+ seating for your upcoming trip...". I'm Prem Gold and I was already in economy plus...

I needed a couple extra miles to guarantee 1K so I built a WAS-DEN-IAH-SAT by designating IAH and DEN as weigh points and then picking the 3 plus stop flights.
